[Mailman-Users] Cannot start after ubuntu upgrade

[Jeff Taylor]

I finally figured it out...  I am running a patched version that slices 
the queue between multiple machines.  After upgrading the machine, I 
reapplied the patch to Switchboard.py, but I forgot to make changes in 
mailmanctl.

All good now, and that patch has been running great for the last couple 
years.  Thanks!
